It is with great pleasure that we announce that on Sunday 11th of November we are invited to be part of the Eucamenical Remembrance Day church service at St. George’s Church in Estrela, Lisbon, to remember all war veterans from the First World War.

Since 2012, some pupils from St. James’ Primary School have participated in the service by each reading a small passage. Our pupils have once again been invited by the royal British Legion to take part in this important ceremony.

This year Luis Amaral from Year 7 will be the reader.

St. James´ Primary School would like to invite you and your family to attend the Eucamenical Remembrance Day church service on Sunday, 11th November 2018 at 10.15 a.m.

A kind reminder.
It is expected that children read regularly at home, around 10 minutes per day, in English and Portuguese, with parental supervision and support IF possible. Please sign the personal reading record every day.
How can I help my child become a better reader?
As everything, performance improves with practice. Encourage your child to read at home. Create a culture of reading in your household by reading with your child, starting a home library, visiting your local library or bookshop on a regular basis, letting your child see you reading and discussing books that each of you have read. When reading with your child, stop and ask questions to be sure your child is comprehending what is read. Reading with your child, no matter what the child’s age, is an important part of developing a good reader, building a lifelong love of reading and learning and creating a loving relationship between you and your child. Make learning a family affair!
